Clean Bandit are a British electronic group, founded in 2009. After their 2013 single "Mozart's House" reached number 17 on the UK Singles Chart, in January 2014 they scored their first UK number one single with "Rather Be", featuring elements of classical music, along with a dance music beat.
Clean Bandit's music has been described as 'fusion' music, mixing electronic music with classical and deep-house elements. They produce the music themselves and invite guest artists to sing their songs. Discovered by producer Wayne Dean. They write their own music.
Chatto stated that the music videos that accompany the songs are integral to the works as a whole; the videos would be conceived during the process of writing the music. The videos are made independently by themselves and often have references to culture in them (e.g. the ice skating man in the video to "Dust Clears" is a reference to the painting by Henry Raeburn of The Skating Minister). Chatto and Patterson formed their own film production company, Cleanfilm, to make music videos for themselves and other artists, and corporate videos
